[Vision2020] Huh?

[Donovan Arnold]

It depends. A child or a vulnerable adult it is considered battery regardless of if the person can vocalize their disagreement or objection. Basically, if you are doing something with someones body they don't want you to do it is battery. For example, you cannot hold a child or adult down from walking somewhere you don't want them to go.

Actually not. It only counts as battery if you clearly state "I don't
want to be touched." If you say nothing, they can keep touching you.
That's what a Moscow cop told me, at any rate. Joe
